SVG RUGBY

​

SVG Rugby was established in 1998 and gained full World Rugby membership in 2003. 

​

SVG Men's National Team is rated 79th in the World.

​

SVG Women's team is rated in the top 10 in the North Americas for participation in the Girls into Rugby programme. An amazing feat for such a small nation.

​

It hosted the first qualifying match for the World Cup, Japan 2019. The World Cup toured the islands together with the World's top rugby referee Nigel Owens.

​

Presently, SVG Rugby has four Clubs: three on mainland, and one in Canouan, one of the Grenadine Islands.

​

The sport of rugby has been steadily growing in St. Vincent over the past few years, and is currently on a recruitment drive for men, women and youth players, coaches and volunteers. 

 

It is also actively working with the Government on a programme to support individuals who have found themselves in the court system, as an alternative to a custodial sentence.
